At KLTV, nothing is more important to us than providing East Texans with the very best in local news and weather, along with your favorite ABC programming.

In order to serve our viewers, KLTV has in place agreements with the cable and satellite companies that bring our station to your home. In fact, KLTV has such agreements in place with every TV provider in our area.

Unfortunately, we have been unable to reach an Agreement with Dish Satellite.

For several months we have been working to resolve this matter, but so far have been unable to reach an Agreement with Dish Satellite for the continued carriage of KLTV. This is particularly disappointing because all the other TV providers in our area have Agreements with us and those Agreements are fundamentally similar to the one we have been negotiating with Dish Satellite.

As a result, on August 1st, Dish Satellite customers lost access to KLTV.

We understand how frustrating this is for you. We share your frustration. After all, you pay Dish Satellite 100% of your bill each month. Why shouldn’t you get 100% of your channels? You can reach your local Dish Satellite Service Rep at1-888-631-1536.

KLTV is committed to resolving this matter and getting back on the dial. But in the meantime, you should know that you have choices. Our station remains available on other providers and we are always available free over-the-air.

KLTV is still available on all other providers and for free over the air.

Thank you for your viewership and support.
